210
## Executor Container Management
211

212
### Container Launch Context
213

214
```scala
215
// ExecutorRunnable creates complete launch context
216
class ExecutorRunnable {
217
  private def createContainerLaunchContext(): ContainerLaunchContext = {
218
    // 1. Set up executor command line
219
    val executorCommand = buildExecutorCommand()
220
    
221
    // 2. Configure environment variables
222
    val environment = setupExecutorEnvironment()
223
    
224
    // 3. Set up local resources (JARs, files, archives)
225
    val localResources = setupLocalResources()
226
    
227
    // 4. Configure security tokens
228
    val tokens = setupSecurityTokens()
229
    
230

232
      localResources, environment, executorCommand, tokens
233
    )
234
  }
235
}
236
```
237

238
### Executor Environment Setup
239

240
```scala
241
// Environment configuration for executor containers
242
trait ExecutorRunnableUtil {
243
  protected def setupExecutorEnvironment(): Map[String, String] = {
244
    Map(
245
      "SPARK_HOME" -> sparkHome,
246
      "CLASSPATH" -> buildExecutorClasspath(),
247

248
      "PYTHONPATH" -> pythonPath,
249
      "HADOOP_CONF_DIR" -> hadoopConfDir,
250
      // YARN-specific environment variables

      "CONTAINER_ID" -> containerId,
252
      "APPLICATION_WEB_PROXY_BASE" -> webProxyBase
253
    )
254
  }
255
  
256
  protected def buildExecutorClasspath(): String = {

    // Spark JARs and dependencies
258
    // User application JARs (--addJars)
259
    // Hadoop and YARN libraries
260
    // Custom classpaths from configuration
261
  }
262
}
263
```
264

265
## Configuration Utilities
266

267
### YARN Configuration Integration
268

269
```scala
270
// YarnSparkHadoopUtil handles configuration integration
271
class YarnSparkHadoopUtil {
272
  def getYarnConfiguration(sparkConf: SparkConf): Configuration = {
273
    // Load base Hadoop configuration
274
    val hadoopConf = new Configuration()
275
    
276
    // Apply Spark-specific YARN overrides
277
    applySparkYarnConfiguration(hadoopConf, sparkConf)
278
    
279
    // Handle security configuration for Kerberos clusters
280
    setupSecurityConfiguration(hadoopConf)
281
    
282
    hadoopConf
283
  }
284
  
285
  private def applySparkYarnConfiguration(
286
    hadoopConf: Configuration, 
287
    sparkConf: SparkConf
288
  ): Unit = {
289
    // Map Spark configuration to Hadoop configuration
290
    // Set YARN-specific properties
291
    // Configure resource manager addresses
292
    // Set up queue and priority configurations
293
  }
294
}
295
```
296

297
### Security Token Management
298

299
```scala
300
// Security integration for Kerberos-enabled clusters
301
object YarnSparkHadoopUtil {
302
  def obtainTokensForNamenodes(
303
    paths: Set[Path], 
304
    conf: Configuration
305
  ): Map[String, Token[_]] = {
306
    // Obtain delegation tokens for HDFS access
307
    // Handle multiple namenode configurations
308
    // Support for secure cluster authentication
309
  }
310
  
311
  def obtainTokensForHBase(conf: Configuration): Map[String, Token[_]] = {
312
    // Obtain tokens for HBase integration
313
    // Support for secure HBase clusters
314
  }
315
  
316
  def obtainTokensForHive(conf: Configuration): Map[String, Token[_]] = {
317
    // Obtain tokens for Hive metastore access
318
    // Support for secure Hive integration
319
  }
320
}
321
```
322

323
## Performance Optimizations
324

325
### Resource Caching
326

327
```scala
328
// Efficient resource distribution and caching
329
class ClientDistributedCacheManager {
330
  private def optimizeResourceDistribution(): Unit = {
331
    // Cache frequently used files in HDFS
332
    // Use symbolic links for shared resources
333
    // Minimize network transfer overhead
334
    // Leverage YARN's distributed cache capabilities
335
  }
336
}
337
```
338

339
### Container Launch Optimization
340

341
```scala
342
// Optimized executor container launch
343
class ExecutorRunnable {
344
  private def launchContainerAsync(): Future[Unit] = {
345
    // Parallel container launch to reduce startup time
346
    // Pre-warm executor JVMs when possible
347
    // Optimize classpath and resource loading
348
    // Monitor launch success and retry on failures
349
  }
350
}
351
```
352

353
## Error Handling and Diagnostics
354

355
### Container Launch Failures
356

357
```scala
358
// Robust error handling for container operations
359
class ExecutorRunnable {
360
  private def handleLaunchFailure(exception: Exception): Unit = {
361
    // Log detailed failure information
362
    // Classify failure types (resource, network, configuration)
363
    // Implement retry logic for transient failures
364
    // Report failures to ApplicationMaster for resource reallocation
365
  }
366
}
367
```
368

369
### Distributed Cache Failures
370

371
```scala
372
// Error handling for resource distribution
373
class ClientDistributedCacheManager {
374
  private def handleDistributionFailure(resource: String, error: Throwable): Unit = {
375
    // Log resource distribution failures
376
    // Attempt alternative distribution strategies
377
    // Fail fast for critical resources
378
    // Provide detailed error messages for troubleshooting
379
  }
380
}
381
```
382

383
